BoyleSports Champions Plate Final Preview

Trap 1 Scooby Countess – 2/1

Odds

Scoobys Countess is expected to go very close to landing the Champion Plate Final at odds of 11/4 suggesting a 26.7% chance of success.

Pedigree

Sire: Droopys Sydney

Dam: Scooby Princess

Career Record

Form

Last Saturday Night the dog broke fast to make all at the first bend and win in 29.87 coming 5.5 lengths ahead of runner-up Esmonde Swift. This made it three wins from her last four races from one of the fastest females in training.

Verdict

Last week's run over the 550-yard trip was her first in a recorded capacity and should have plenty of room for improvement. A serious contender for this final.

Trap 2 Hawkfield Abbie – 10/1

Odds

Hawkfield Abbie is priced at 10/1 suggesting a 9.1% chance of success in this race.

Pedigree

Sire: Good News

Dam: Brownstown Tango

Career Record

Form

Hawkfield Abbie qualified for this final after finishing runner-up 1.5 lengths back of Brunswick Bullet who won the race in 29.99. The highlight of her career was her Track record run at Mullingar stopping the clock in 30.41 for the 550.

Verdict

Hawkfield Abbie has plenty of pace but has done a lot of travelling in recent weeks during her English Derby campaign so winning this will be a tall task.

Trap 3 Carrick Keano – 9/4

Odds

Carrick Keano is priced at 9/4 to land the Champion Plate Final suggesting a 30.8% chance of the dog crossing the winning line.

Pedigree

Sire: Dromana Bucko

Dam: Droopys Zero

Career Record

Form

Carrick Keano qualified for the final last Saturday coming two lengths back of winner Glengar Martha who clocked 29.77. The dog's last run came in a race the week before where he clocked 29.72 so he has the capacity to improve Saturday Night.

Verdict

Will be certainly thereabouts come the finish line, but I think he might need a personal best run to win the final for the 550-yard trip.

Trap 4 Esmonde Swift- 20/1

Odds

Esmonde Swift is priced at 20/1 to land another shock win on Saturday, this implies the dog has a. 4.8% chance of success in this final.

Pedigree

Sire: Ballymac Bolger

Dam: Liberty Marie

Career Record

Form

Esmonde Swift qualified for the final last weekend at a big price of 12/1 coming 5.5 lengths back of winner Scooby Countess who won in 29.87. The dog's best performance over the 550 trip was a third-place finish in 30.07.

Verdict

Despite coming second last week Esmonde Swift has a lot to find on the clock if he is to claim a shock victory on Saturday.

Trap 5 Glengar Martha - 2/1

Odds

Glengar Martha can be gotten at 2/1 suggesting a 33.3% chance of Champion Plate success.

Pedigree

Sire: Droopys Sydney

Dam: Glengarbadminton

Career Record

Form

Glengar Martha qualified for the final last week, fast away and always led to win in 29.77 and finish 2 lengths ahead of Carrick Keano for fifteenth career success. Saturday will be the October 2021 Whelps 50th race.

Verdict

Glengar Martha is a brilliantly consistent tracker and if she can break from traps like she can on Saturday I make her favourite. However, she has had a lot of travel/races in recent weeks so that could go against her.

Trap 6 Brunswick Bullet - 10/1

Odds

Brunswick Bullet is 10/1 to land the spoils on Saturday, this implies the dog has a 9.1% chance of success in the race.

Pedigree

Sire: Sonic

Dam: Ballymac Maxi

Career Record

Form

Last Saturday Night the dog finished strongly to lead near the line passing Hawkfield Abbie to come 1.5 lengths ahead of the runner-up 29.99 which was his first appearance for the 550-yard distance in Shelbourne Park.

Verdict

He will be coming fast from behind but needs to find a few more spots on the clock to figure in this final.
